The Adventures of Pinocchio by Carlo Collodi
4.5
adventurous funny lighthearted medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

This particular edition of Pinocchio includes everything one could want. The translation is a good rendition and keeps the interest of the English reader without being stilted. The illustrations are beautiful, and the layout is very well done. Pinocchio himself is a whiney obnoxious character, of course, but the adventures are fun. This is a favorite to read to my kids.
